Dean Of Students
Speaks On Morals
That the key to success in
life or any of its undertakings
is character was the opinion ex
pressed by Dean F. F. Bradshaw
in speaking to the freshmen in
chapel yesterday. While show
ing at the same time the impor
tance of character in any activ
ity, the dean pointed particular
ly to its place in business affairs.
The working value of a good
character, the dean explained,
depends on the fact that the man
who achieves something must
have the cooperation of others
and that the necessary coopera
tion can be obtained only by the
man of character. People hesi
tate to trust or to deal with a
man who is lacking in the quali
ties of a good character.
In discussing the require
ments for business success Mr.
Bradshaw quoted a statement
by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Mr.
Rockefeller holds that good mor
als and obedience to law, as well
as consideration of others and
loyalty, are fundamental neces
sities for the business man. The
man who is without them is a
detriment to his firm.
